Outside

The rear garden is one of the property’s defining features. Arranged primarily as a large, neatly striped lawn with mature specimen trees, the plot extends to approximately a quarter of an acre and feels impressively spacious. A patio terrace runs along the back of the house, incorporating a dedicated outdoor entertaining area with decking and hot tub area with green partition surround, and a covered al fresco dining terrace accessed directly from the bi-folding doors. The combination of these spaces creates a wonderful outdoor environment for family life and summer entertaining. The garden is enclosed by fencing and hedging providing good privacy, with planted borders adding colour. A timber garden shed is tucked away to the rear.

At the front, a substantial block pave driveway provides ample off-road parking for multiple vehicles, with the integral garage sitting to the right-hand side.
